NAEHCY’s Statement on the Confirmation of Betsy DeVos

Thursday, February 9, 2017

Earlier this week, Betsy DeVos was confirmed as the next Secretary of Education. Many homeless education professionals and advocates are concerned about how the Secretary’s track record supporting privatization of public education may impact access to equitable education for children and youth experiencing homelessness. NAEHCY will continue to stand as a strong advocate for the education of homeless children and youth, and we look forward to working with Secretary DeVos and her team to ensure homeless children and youth can meet their full potential.
